Actually, I'm pretty sure someone knew the implications. Other than buffing up a magic user, of what real use are INT and POW spirits (or other stat spirits for that matter) anyway? They seemed really really out of place in the RQ/Glorantha cosmology, and a simple crutch in game terms to help create powerful magicians.
